I applied for an invite as soon as Ingress was released and got an invite soon enough. However the past few days I am roaming in my city and I do not see any activity from any other player. (I'm in Dhaka, Bangladesh.)

In the intel map if you check the "Restrict to map" at the bottom of the site in the "COMM" box and move the map over to an area (ie Dhaka, Bangladesh in your case) you will see in the "COMM" box all the nearby activity
